Inserted file headings

2016-10-07 Thread John Hart



I'm trying to build a table of contents, and put the chapter title
in the file properties.Then added a heading with the title field.

When the file is inserted into the master document, the heading for
all the chapters are replaced with the title of the master document.

The index function is set to use the file headings to make the table
of contents, so it does nothing.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Re: Open Office "Quits Unexpectedly" in Sierra

2016-10-07 Thread Mike Claridge
Hi Keith,

Message is “OpenOffice quit unexpectedly” followed by a whole page of comments 
that is sent to Apple automatically and with a page heading of "Problem Report 
for OpenOffice".  I can open an existing document in Open Office and then open 
a new document from the open document but obviously that is not something one 
wants to be doing all the time.

Kind regards,
Mike.

Instead of sending the report to Apple, please copy the whole text on
the second CrashReport dialog [1] and paste it on TextEdit.app, then
save the file as a plain text document, and send it to my e-mail address
or attach it to a bug report on
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/enter_bug.cgi?product=General

This is already reported on
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127143

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it, and there is no solution nor
workaround other than trying to start OpenOffice inside Terminal.app
with a particular module so that you avoid the Start Center, for
example, to open the word processor:

/Applications/OpenOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/swriter

This might not help at all, other users reported further crashes or
painting glitches.

Re: Open Office "Quits Unexpectedly" in Sierra

2016-10-07 Thread chuck ef
I admit that I am very confused here. I have gotten this sort of thing since I 
first started using OO - I can't recall now which version of OS X that was - 
about three years ago. But OO does sometimes quit on the first attempt and 
always has in my experience. I have usually associated it with trying to open 
it first thing after I boot-up. OO is one of the first things I open up after I 
bring my machine up in the morning. Resources are tied up and perhaps the app 
gives up the ghost too quickly.


I just try again and it opens. Though modestly annoying, it is by no means a 
true problem. OO is quite functional even in macOS Sierra.

Still can't get spell check to work automatically.

2016-10-07 Thread Susie Paper
I tried what you recommended.  I used to have word and it did spell 
check automatically wit suggestions.  Is that possible with your 
program.  Suggestions welcomed.

Problem resolved, file properties aren't transferred to the master document,
and there are two types of headings, I was using the wrong one.

Now there's only one problem left, chapter numbers don't show in the 
table of contents.


I traced it back to this:

edit the "Heading 1" style (right click -> modify); now, go to the 
Numbering tab:
you will find a drop-down menu that allows you to select a style from 
the List Styles!


The problem is the drop-down menu doesn't work.

Changed to "Heading", which enabled changing styles, and selected 
Numbering 1.


Now everything is working, except it starts with chapter 2,

anyone have any ideas?

I doubt if you have OpenOffice as version 5 is not available we are 
still on version 4.1.2

Resolved. The Index was created with a chapter numbering style.
It didn't put it's self into the table, but did number it's self
and increment the count. Clicking on the index and changing the
style to none fixed it.

If anyone is interested in how to set up Master Documents with
generated numbering, (no outline) respond and I'll post my notes
when they're finished.
